Publisher's summary

They survived the collapse, but can they survive the aftermath?

Morgan Carter has weathered the weeks after the collapse of the nation's power grid, reuniting with his family and ensuring their safety, but his struggle isn't over yet. Carter must focus on survival in an increasingly unstable society - but the challenges he faces are beyond his wildest imagination.

Meanwhile, the enclosed quarters of the nearby government-run refugee camp make for an environment where injury, assault and murder are the norm. As Jess creates trouble within the camp, Sarge and his crew plot to take down the entire establishment.

From the author of the hit Survivalist series books, Forsaking Home is an action-packed adventure that depicts the harrowing possibilities of a world gone awry, and the courage it takes to protect what matters most.

Emotionally impactful

I love this series! This book continues with the three groups of people: Morgan, Thad and the rest of their group, Sarge and his guys and Jess and her new friends. The events that unfold are not only packed with action, but are also emotionally impactful. I love the characters and the camaraderie between them. Full of action, drama, suspense and lightheartedness, this is a must read.

These books just keep getting better!

In my opinion, this was the best of the Going Home series since the first one. I loved this one! Such great characters, and the story line rang very true. Great book, and Duke Fontaine is an AMAZING narrator for this type of novel. On to the next one!

Finally a realistic story of survival

A American hits the right balance with a realistic story of survival without the zombies. The biggest challenges are. living (food, water, fire, shelter) and our fellow man (those that want to take advantage of others or seek power including a government out for themselves.

These book teach you how to prepare for what none of use hope happens but very well could.

Book 4 upscales

First, I own all ten books in this series (so far, 11 on the way) so while I may be critical of A. American's start, the author improves greatly as he goes along. I originally "read" these books in book format and about a year ago, decided to pick the first up in audio format for a long road trip. Excellent choice on my part. My recollection of his writing style was spot on and it started sophomorically but has improved over the book series. Don't get me wrong, Chris Weatherman is knowledgeable and it shows. I happened to be traveling with friends and several started the series after our several-day road trip. Something I noted early on and my friends agreed on it, it prompts you to think about the various everyday life things and conveniences we take for granted. While I have always found his books entertaining, my friends found them educational as well. As a prior military man, I read some of these negative reviews and shook my head. As a veteran, you just "get it." Apparently, our humor is not everyone's tea but clearly, enough people find his books entertaining to keep him in business and on best sellers lists.
